A washing machine that includes a cabinet; an outer basket in the cabinet and configured to accommodate wash water; an inner basket in the outer basket and configured to accommodate laundry; a water supply valve unit in the cabinet and connected to an external water supply source, configured to receive wash water; and a micro-bubble generator configured to receive the wash water from the water supply valve unit, generate micro-bubbles, and supply the micro-bubbles to a washing space. The micro-bubble generator includes a dissolving unit configured to mix or dissolve gas into the wash water from the water supply valve unit. The dissolving unit includes: a water supply line connection connected indirectly to the water supply valve unit, configured to introduce the wash water; a supply hole providing a path in which gas is introduced into a dissolution space; and a dissolved water drain portion discharging the wash water in which gas is mixed or dissolved.

Washing machine and micro-bubble generator thereof

A wall-mounted drum type washing machine includes a rear panel mounted on a wall surface; a tub containing wash water; a box unit coupled to the rear panel and surrounding the tub; and a reinforcement portion connecting the tub and the rear panel and surrounding the tub.

Wall-mounted drum type washing machine

A wall-mounted drum-type washing machine includes a rear panel mounted on a wall surface; a tub containing wash water, supported by the rear panel; a front panel having an opening formed therein and installed on the tub; a control unit installed in the front panel; and a bypass unit bypassing wash water away from the control unit.

Wall-mounted drum-type washing machine

A washing machine includes a rear panel mounted on a wall; a tub supported by the rear panel and configured to contain wash water; a front panel having an opening therein and on or in front of the tub; a rotatable drum in the tub; a driving unit providing power to the drum; a cover on the rear panel so as to cover the tub and the front panel; a water supply device supplying wash water to the tub; and a drain device having a drain filter in a wash water discharge path, the drain filter being configured to filter foreign matter in the wash water.

Washing machine

A wall-mounted drum type washing machine includes a rear panel mounted on a wall surface; a tub containing washing water, supported by the rear panel; a front panel on the tub; a cover unit covering the front panel; and a detachable detergent box inserted through the cover unit and into the front panel.

A wall-mounted drum-type washing machine includes a rear panel mounted on a wall surface; a tub containing wash water; a rotatable drum in the tub; a driving unit providing power to the drum; a coupling unit on the rear panel coupled to a rotatable driving shaft of the drum; and a disposition portion preventing the driving unit connected to the driving shaft from interfering with the wall surface.

An exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure relates to a washing machine including a dissolving unit, and the dissolving unit includes: an outer body which is formed to have a hollow interior, and has one side formed to be opened, and the other side having a drain hole; a dissolving cap which is coupled to one side of the outer body so as to store air therein, and has a dissolving inlet port formed to supply water supplied from the outside into the inner body; and a discharge check valve which is installed at the other side of the outer body, and opens and closes the drain hole.

A washing machine including a dissolving unit and a bubble generating unit. The dissolving unit includes a hollow outer body that has an open end, and a hollow inner body that has an open end. The inner body is disposed in the outer body. The gap between the inner and the outer body forms a dissolving flow path. The dissolving unit includes flow paths allowing water to mix with air efficiently as water flows through. The bubble generating unit includes a pressure reduction region to reduce pressures of bubbles. Bubbles can be supplied with washing water either to the upper side or the lower side of the tub.

A washing machine capable of generating bubbles from a water/air mixture and supplying bubbles to the tub to facilitate removal of residual detergent or the like from laundry during washing or rinsing operations. The washing machine has a dissolving unit with an air supply check valve and can receive air from outside of the dissolving unit in accordance with a pressure in the dissolving unit. Air contained in the dissolving unit can be dissolved in water contained therein to produce water/air mixture. A bubble generating unit receives the water/air mixture from the dissolving unit and generates bubbles as the mixture passes along a water flow path and a pressure reduction region in the bubble generating unit.

Wall-mounted drum type washing machine having wall coupling members

A wall-mounted drum-type washing machine includes a rear panel mounted on a wall surface; a tub containing wash water, supported by the rear panel; a front panel on the tub; a box unit on the rear panel, surrounding the tub and having a connection hole in a front side thereof; a cover unit in the connection hole; and an elastic assembly unit connecting the box unit and the rear panel, generating an elastic force between the cover unit and the box unit.
